Muscle implants are prosthetic devices designed to replace or enhance damaged or missing muscles. These implants contain living cells, such as muscle fibers or stem cells, which integrate with the patient's existing muscle tissue and help restore function. The procedure involves surgically placing the implant in the target area, where it adheres to the surrounding muscle and begins to grow and function as a natural muscle.

Muscle implants in New Zealand are custom-made prosthetics used to restore function and improve the appearance of damaged or missing muscles. They may be made from various materials, including silicone or bio-compatible metals.
This procedure is typically performed for patients with injuries, congenital defects, or degenerative muscle conditions. Rehabilitation and physical therapy are essential post-surgery to ensure proper implant integration.
